Performance plan sucks

Honestly, zos. Not to be rude or anything but your performance plan actually sucks. Its barely fixing anything with the game and has only become worse since elsweyr. This is not the devs fault, but the management's fault. They are pushing the devs to make use of all the little server capacity to make the game slightly smoother when it still runs like ***. We all know how *** the performance is, especially in cyrodiil prime time.

Whatever the *** you guys did during MYM event, worked. Servers were running fine with only slight lag in big fights probably because Zo$ rented some server capacity during event. However Zo$ wants to make as much money as possible while spending as little as possible so they wont purchase any more servers to make up for the lag. This will be the games demise. I swear to god this game will die faster than a frog getting decapitated once a new and exciting mmo comes out.

Dont fix the servers, buy more capacity so you dont fkin fry them.

    Let's be honest here - this game isn't dying and the current state is passable. That being said, this performance journey has been absolutely frought with heartache and setbacks. It's not just capacity - which helps - but I feel like it's also the engine itself isn't scaling well. MYM was a great time and they should've been the new norm. We'll never know why it's cyclical upscaling rather than just leaving in place when they clearly benefit from it.

    Passable is for each of us to determine for ourselves. This isn't passable for my gf and I. I know how much better it has been and can be. I've watched entire guilds leave because it also wasn't passable to them. I'm not quitting this game but I am waiting to see where it goes. Skills are not working correctly. I do agree with your game engine comment, something somewhere isn't in sync where it should be. MYM was better than right before it and has gotten worse after, it is noticeable.

    Waited 30 minutes to get in. Joined group and rode to gate infinite load screen. Reboot. Rode to Kings crest and fast travelled to Arrius infinite load screen. Reboot. Time they fixed this buggy mess instead of making plans to.

    Not wrong. Went into pvp loved the lag so much I shut game off and went to play another mmo. Sad really. They do not care for performance their teams are in place to milk as much money as they can. Crown store works perfectly at least. That is a clear sign they only care for that lol.

    Yeah, that's fair. I got frustrated during the skill-bar-freezing period. It hasn't happened since the last update, but now I see quest NPCs duplicating or just straight up not appearing. I just feel like it's always something.

    Totally agree. Bar swap now feels turn based imo. I played this game religiously until I couldn't and have since acquired a many number of other games to wait this out. I know your pain.

    You didn't have play in Elsweyr right ?
    If it was the case you wouldn't say something that false.

    Right now perf are pretty good in PvE, PvP is bad as always and don't really have hope for it.
    If you got problem outside of cyro then look better at your pc/addon/setting/cg setting, etc..
    So many player blame the game when it's actually on their side most of the time, thinking they will run a game like this with a toaster or use a high end PC with 0 setting adjusted..

    I don't even have high end pc or fiber, I'm at 60 ping stable and between 55 and 100+ fps (everything maxed).

    I think some communication saying what they improved and their metrics around it would go miles to repairing that damaged opinion.

    The real problem that it is impossible to play if none of your friends are online, of course I mean to play in a group.
    Nothing has been done so far to push the players to form game groups, this is still an mmo if you want to play solo there is always skyrim.
    Finishing a vet dungeon dlc like DD, without friends but in random is almost a miracle.
    In terms of performance, I think they are doing something to improve everything, perhaps slowly but they are doing.
    What is missing is the quality of life improvements.

    What an unpopular opinion. Isn't it fun opinions. If you'd like to go play skyrim be my guest. I've already beat the stuffing out of skyrim so that's not an option.

    If you need your friends to play ESO doesn't sound like you understand how to properly build your characters that's my opinion. I could help with that.

    Vet dungeon solo no. Don't like dungeons but just my gf and i complete them so you know it is what it is. That's the fun of this game, play as you want remember?

    I do agree they're working on improving the game it has improved in some ways it has also taken a step back in others, just the truth.
